I crossed the river
fell into the sea
where the non-believers
go beyond belief
then I scratched the surface
in t he mouth of hell
running out of service
in the blood I fell

I just want to see the light
I don't want to lose my sight
I just want to see the light
I need to know what's worth the fight

I've been wasted
pills and alcohol
I've been chasing
down the pool halls
then I drank the water
from a hurricane
and I set a fire
just to see the flame

I just want to see the light
I don't want to lose my sight
I just want to see the light
I need to know what's worth the fight

I crossed the desert
reaching higher ground
then I pound the pavement
to take the liars down
but it's gone forever
but never too late
where the ever after
is in the hands of fate

I just want to see the light
I don't want to lose my sight
I just want to see the light
I need to know what's worth the fight
